The Nantucket Colours of New England palette is inspired by the magical island of Nantucket’s stylish homes, beaches, lighthouses and harbours. These coastal shades transcend fashion and colour trends and are always in style. The island is thirty miles off the coast of Cape Cod and home to a few lucky locals including a community of artisans, artists and photographers who live there all year round but is best known as the summer destination of choice for celebrities and well heeled holiday makers alike. The National Park Service cites Nantucket, designated a National Historic Landmark District in 1966, as being the “finest surviving architectural and environmental example of a late 18th- and early 19th-century New England seaport town”.
